my general feeling in the fiscal cliff is that we don't -- this is sort of a man-made crisis. i don't think that we have this crushing budget issue that has to be dealt with at this precise moment or the world will end. i think that we are still in a very anemic recovery in there are a lot of people really startling out there across the country and that our priority should be strengthening our safety net during times of economic dress. now is not the time. in my opinion the commit to be contemplating significant cuts in things that a lot of struggling working class people who have lost grip of the middle-class, a lot of potential spending cuts that are talked about can really have a negative impact on people and a time when they needed the most. i am much more concerned about increasing poverty rates, about protecting the long-term unemployed, not necessarily worry about whether it's another three or six or nine months before we deal with the overall issues, but what i think will happen, there will do what they always do, kick the can down the road, send it out for three, six,
